Well since my thread in the NP Section wasn't good enough I guess for you... lol

Irl I collect coins. Started when I was a young'n of 10 years old. My grandfather gave me the US Quarters that had every state on them each month they came out with a new one.
Now I like to collect the Gold Dollars that contain the presidents. Sadly my grandfather passed away last year. He left his whole collection to me. I miss him.

I have a small shelf of bird identification books given to me by my grandfather. I also collect cameras, both film and digital.

 

@Megazord Do you collect coins from different countries as well?

@rlvb I do have some Canadian coins and notes, but that's about it.

When I was younger I collected stamps. I got most of them from my grandma, she had a lot of old letters. I also loved it to collect stickers. Now I don't collect anything anymore.

 

My mom collect stamps she has lots of them :3 I don't collect anything but I guess I can claim my mom's stamps

when i was a kid, me and my older brother used to play with a gormball machine at a grocery store near our house. it gave out small pokemon figurines apart from other items. we probably collected 100 of those things before losing interest. now, i don't collect anything except maybe some locally-produced graphic novels (have 20 of them still in plastic wraps properly arranged on a bookshelf).

I don't really collect anything. When I was younger, my extended family would send me stamps for some reason (I don't recall expressing an interest in stamp collecting ) but they're no longer living so that stopped. My grandfather would always send us quarters with the states on as well, but I don't know if we ever completed that set. I think there were some odd ones that weren't printed in large numbers, like Guam and Puerto Rico and such. I could be wrong though.

The closest I come to collecting anything would be books. I have an ever-growing fantasy and sci-fi selection, with smaller sections of non-fiction (mostly philosophy and politics) and pulp fiction (Tom Clancy being a guilty pleasure). Yes, that term means something besides the name of a Tarantino movie, you mutts I'm not super restrictive in what I buy or "collect" though. Right now I'm reading an English translation of The Quest of the Holy Grail, The Fairy Stories of Oscar Wilde, and Jorge Luis Borges' Collected Fictions.

If you were to look for a theme among my books, you would probably settle on fantasy or Irish authors.

I collect Eeveelution Pokemon cards, not very seriously though because there are a few super rares out there. A while back when my collection grew reasonably large, I framed them:

Makes for a nice colorful image on the wall. Might have to get a bigger frame now.. This one was already the biggest I could find at local shops.

You're definitely gonna need a bigger frame (or maybe just split it up into two smaller frames), even though the XY set coming out soon doesn't have any Sylveon cards in it they're bound to make more of them at some point ^^ So far there's just this one~

Wow that is a lot :0 That insurance bill though... Are any if the bows insanely good?

2 of them are loans and I don't like to think about how much they cost and I have to sign a lot of paperwork and make a whole lot of promises each year to keep hold of them.

I'm not really much of a collector nowadays.  I started collecting Naruto manga volumes, but it's been quite a while since I've bought one :x

In addition to my vintage cameras, I do have quite the hefty collection of magazines. I should probably throw those out at some point.

I had to get rid of all my gaming magazines when I moved. It was quite heart-wrenching.

[Feeder]

I collect everything related to Harry Potter.

Oreos?

Mustache stuff... It started as a joke years ago but now it's a bit of an obsession.

This is only a sample of my collection

I used to collect gfx novels and mags, 2 main ones in particular.

 

Collections I still have (pictures to come):

 

All 6 Akira books

All Manga Mania mags with the Akira episodes

2000AD from Mag #1 to Mag #1500 odd

2000AD Extreme and Special Editions from #1 to the year 2007

 

All of the above are in airtight sealed boxes in the attic and in pristine condition.

 

Every year I think about selling them all as I am fed up with lugging them around with me all the time.
